Locate the speakers module, which consists of 2 square black speakers connected by wires.
Locate the white and blue Home Key FFC ribbon cable between the speakers.
Use the tip of a spudger or opening tool to lift up and flip the small hinge on the connector. Then gently pull the FFC ribbon cable out its connector socket.
While a metal spudger tool is shown here and may be used, it is best to use a plastic spudger or opening tool when possible. It is easier to damage cables when using metal tools, so be extra cautious when using a metal spudger like the one shown here!

Шаг 7

Locate the speaker cable. Use your fingers to pinch each side of the black head of the speaker cable, and gently pull it out of its socket.
The metal spudger shown in the photo is used only to identify the speaker cable, not remove it.
If you're unable to get a good grip on the black connector head itself, gently pull from the wires near the connector head's base.
Be sure to pull on the wires near the base and evenly on the full width of the wires so no individual wire is over-strained, which may cause damage!

Unscrew the 4mm Phillips screws securing the speakers module to the device using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.
There are two 4mm screws in total (one screw securing each speaker).

Шаг 9

Now both speakers should be free. Use the edge of a spudger tool to lift each speaker off the device, or use your hands to simultaneously lift each square black speaker off of the device.
If intact, the two speakers should be connected by wires, forming a one-piece speakers module.
